Sam H.

Sushi was solid and good flavors, tad pricey. Liked the sushi alot, and the avocado bombs WERE SO GOOD highly recommend. The rangoons were good and crispy, and fish ice cream dessert was tasty, creme brulee was fine but not super crunchy sugar topping. We sat at the sushi bar and the staff were nice. A good experience here!

Brussels
Samone J.

I just landed and needed food! This place was just a 10 min walk from where I was staying, so I hit the pavement. For starters I had the crispy Brussels and deep fried beef dumplings. Both dishes, 10/10. The Brussels were very savory and crispy, tossed in a soy but sweet tasting sauce. The dumplings, man... worth every bite! It was my first time trying deep fried version, and I would order it again and again. This was just a quick pit stop! I was very pleased!

Chicken Teriyaki Bento Box...yummy
Fefe P.

Lunch with my nieces at Sushi Sakana turned out to be a tasty and satisfying midweek treat. The space itself is casual with a covered porch for outdoor seating when weather permits. Service was nice, albeit a bit slower than I would have preferred. For the meal, I ordered the Gyudon--a savory beef bowl over rice that really hit the spot. My elder niece went the sushi route...taking our servers recommendation for two rolls--the Firecracker (a cooked roll) and the Spicy Kiss (no rice roll). She mentioned that the Firecracker was more to her liking, but both were filling. The younger girls split a chicken teriyaki bento box, which ended up being plenty of food for the two of them. Great value on that front! We also shared a couple appetizers--softshell crab and one of my personal favorites, fried squid legs (aka Ika Geso Karaage). They prepare it a bit crispier and chewier than what I'm used to at other Japanese spots, but I still enjoyed it enough. Pro Tip: Parking can be a hassle at this location since there aren't any garages immediately nearby. Some of the lots in the area seem a little shady--I've seen reviews where people paid and still got towed. I decided to play it safe and just grabbed an Uber. Overall, this was a laid-back and flavorful lunch with generous portions and fair prices. I'd go back again. Happy Eating!

Cucumber salad
Shini X.

I was in the mood for a chirashi bowl since I was craving something cold for dinner given the hot weather and discovered this place while doing a Google search for Japanese restaurants nearby that offered a chirashi bowl on their menu! It was a Saturday so I called to make a reservation for me and my friend since we weren't sure how busy it would be (especially given the high star ratings), and I was surprised that we were able to book a reservation with only a few hours in advance. When we arrived around 6:30p the restaurant was pretty empty except for maybe 2-3 other parties and we were seated immediately at a table with a makeshift paper "placard" with my handwritten name and reservation time on it. It was an overall very enjoyable experience and would definitely recommend and come back again! 5/5 FOOD I ordered the cucumber salad and chirashi bowl and both were perfect for the hot weather! The cucumber salad was SO REFRESHING and had the perfect crisp crunchy texture with just the right amount of dressing/seasoning to complement but not overpower. My friend had also ordered the cucumber salad and agreed that it was really good. The chirashi bowl had generous portions of various fresh sashimi over rice (seasoned with nori komi furikake) but I don't think there was anything special/exceptional about it that made it stand out from other chirashi bowls I've had at other Japanese restaurants. Nevertheless, it was still very delicious and definitely satisfied my chirashi bowl craving! There was an overwhelming selection of sushi rolls and the menu was overall varied enough that I had made a comment to my friend that we would have to come back to try more of their menu items. The menu pricing seemed pretty standard and didn't raise any red flags for me. Overall the food was very good and I would definitely come back! 5/5 AMBIENCE/SERVICE The restaurant was much smaller than I had anticipated but despite this, it did not get crowded even though my friend and I came around "peak" dinner time on a Saturday. The overall atmosphere was nice and quiet and I had no issues with having a conversation with my friend. The establishment was very clean and organized, although I did not use their bathroom so cannot comment there. Staff were very friendly and I did not have any issues with having the bill split nor being able to get some takeout boxes to bring home leftovers. 1/5 PARKING There's an open paid parking lot across the street (?pay by the hour) but it had shady reviews so my friend and I decided to take Uber to get to the restaurant since there are no other nearby parking places. Said open paid parking lot was pretty empty despite it being a Saturday evening so I would probably avoid parking there...

Nacho Roll
Brandon L.

Was looking for a good sushi place that I hadn't been to before and came across this place. It's pretty small on the inside, but that makes for a great quiet and intimate date place. Service was pretty good and quite quick for several rolls. The rolls were surprisingly really good! Some of the better sushi rolls that I've had compared to other places. They are pretty good on price for the amount that you get for the roll. I thought the rolls were pretty big! They also do a whole lot of to-go orders for the people living real close by. That part of the restaurant stays busy! I'll for sure be back one day for some good sushi!

Dumpling soup
Jahaziel H.

Amazing experience, highly recommend! If there's only one check, you can fill out their ordering page by marking your selections. If you have separate checks, they'll take the orders individually. We went with a big group and that worked fine. The menu is extensive so there's something for everyone, even for those who don't want sushi (they have noodles, fried rice, and other options). A couple of our group had allergies (crab & dairy) and they were super accommodating. I recommend the dumpling soup (it comes in a pork bone broth), spicy edamame, and the dancing fire roll (shrimp tempura, spicy crabmeat, avocado, cucumber topped with boiled shrimp furikake with spicy mayo, eel sauce). It comes covered in aluminum foil and they light up the fire on the table. It's so entertaining and perfect for the chilly night since we sat outside. It was so delicious too.

Combo fried rice
LaToya A.

Visited this quaint spot in uptown on a Friday night at about 630. No wait, which was great, and food came very quickly. We ordered the combo fried rice, salmon tower, volcano roll, and one other roll. We ate essentially all of the latter 3 dishes. Unfortunately the fried rice had little flavor by comparison and we decided to leave it. I would return for the sushi but would leave fried rice. Also loved the complementary dessert (mochi)

Albacore
Toby C.

It's ok Sushi was average, service was slow but servers were nice. Clean & Casual atmosphere. Probably not going back, this was my 2nd try here. Lots of better options in the Uptown and surrounding areas.

The sushi was good, nothing spectacular tbh though! I ordered the following: 1 california roll and 1 shaggy dog roll. Both were good. I do wish the shaggy dog roll was more crispy as what I expected from the menu description. The food came out pretty fast. I came on a Friday afternoon and there were a few tables in the restaurant dining. They do have lunch specials which I just missed by 15 min on Friday so plan accordingly if you are trying to catch it! Seems like a very popular spot people order from as there were a lot of online/pickup orders. Service: 2/5 I didn't like the service I received from my particular waiter. When I came in, I was not greeted. When I told her a table for 1 she mumbled under her breath and pointed to an area of 4 tables for me to sit at. I even asked where to sit and she still pointed in the direction of tables. When I sat down, she said I couldn't sit there and had to move to another table. When it was time to pay however I was greeted with a big smile (typical!) and asked how my meal was. I expect to be treated decently at a restaurant providing service from the moment I step into an establishment and leave when I'm spending money.

Yellow tail
CeCee S.

New casual sushi spot. I stopped in on a Sunday afternoon after my walk. Nicely decorated, maybe 10 tables and an open sushi bar. I only ordered sashimi. Toro and yellowtail. Both cleanly sliced, good width. Fresh and naturally tasty. At the end of the meal the staff brought complimentary ice cream. I'll be back!

Albacore
Doreen T.

Yelp brought us here and it was a popular place on a Friday night in Jan 2023. Interior and decor are fresh and modern. I like the bright light all around for great foodie pix. Hubby and I share some sushi such as albacore, crab, and sear salmon belly. I got the salmon belly bowl which I have to admit was only okay. It did not taste super fresh. Hubby got the blue crab handroll and he said it was alrighty as well. We both did enjoyed the Brussel sprouts and the chefs special roll which has different kinds of fish and wrap in cucumber without any rice. This dish was delicious and refreshing. Not sure if they take reservations, but they did get a bit crowded as we left. So come early if you are hungry and minimize the wait time!

Special Boat A, plus rolls and selected Sushi.
John B.

We had such a lovely meal here. We ordered a lot of sushi. 4 of us shared a Special Boat A, plus White Tuna, Yellow Tail, unagi, and they gave us an order of Toro. Some additional rolls were ordered and we were full!!

We got a cheeseboard, but if I had to recommend one thing, definitely the fried mushrooms if you like mushrooms. They're huge and the spicy cilantro sour cream sauce is killer! We sat in the indoor/outdoor area, which was my fave. It can take a minute to flag someone down when it's busy, but that felt understandable for how busy they were.

The Guinness is poured so perfectly it should be in the Louvre. The bartender, Austin (I'm pretty sure that's his real name and not just what he tells customers), has the patience of a saint and the sarcasm of a man who's been asked "Do you have anything like Guinness but less dark?" one too many times. Highlights: The fish & chips were so good I briefly considered converting to Catholicism just so I could thank God properly. The bathroom graffiti is poetic. "Roses are red, violets are blue, I came for a piss and met half the crew." - actual quote. Then you've got Hannah, who's basically the pub's chaos coordinator. She's got blonde hair that could guide ships in a fog and a laugh that echoes like a banshee having a great time. Don't sleep on Wes - He'll nod once, slide you your drink, and if you're lucky, mutter something profound like "Life's short, drink good stout." Then he disappears to polish glasses like he's auditioning for a monastery. Absolute mystery man, 10/10 enigma. And rounding out the crew is Paige, the wildcard. She's got stories that start with "Back in then..." and end with police chases, lost sheep, and at least one exploding still. She'll flirt with your grandma, roast your ex in three sentences or less. There is also this Asian guy that looks like a confused troll with blonde hair. He lives up to the saying once you go Asian it's amasian. Can't forget the blonde girl that's going through the Dallas legacy transition of bottle service to real estate. Shes as good at serving as she is selling real estate. These people run the bar like a well-oiled dysfunctional family. They banter with each other louder than the jukebox, remember birthdays you forgot you told them, and have an unspoken code: if you're having a rough night, they'll slide you a free shot and pretend it was a mistake. If you're being a gobshite, they'll roast you into next week without missing a pour.

We had a reservation but probably would have been seated right away anyway, but again it was a holiday and they got super busy before we left so I'm sure that was not typical. Our server was good but service was super slow and I had to remind them of things a couple of times. For larger groups they have one really large booth and several pub height tables. The only issue with those is the chairs are not comfortable, especially for short people and there is nowhere to put your feet to make it more comfortable. That's a thing for me...if you're short, you understand. Other than that, it's a large dining area with a rolling garage type door that opens up during good weather and a nice size patio area. Parking can be scarce in the neighborhood but if you don't mind walking a couple of blocks, you're good. I ordered the bagel sandwich and it did not disappoint! The chicken was perfectly fried. The seasoning and batter combined with the pickles on the bun reminded me of a certain competitor that is closed on Sundays. The egg was well done and the ham grilled with just a touch of char to it. It was a hearty sandwich that turned into two meals. The purple potato bacon'd hash is so good, and it looks like a small portion but it's very filling. We also got an order of the roasted apple pie pancakes to share (and still had leftovers!) and they were so fluffy and decadent. Not overly sweet, but sweet enough. The food is easily a 5 while the service on this visit was just a 3-4 but still good. Nothing that will keep us from going back, for sure.

Me and my friends have a relationship with the long time staff as customers as well as the excellent music talent. The cause?
